About this Product

This is a graph embedded in 3-dimensional space as a subset of the cubic lattice. The graph has a fractal structure, formed by a process of repeated substitution. Each vertex at each step of the construction is degree 3, and is replaced at the next step by 7 vertices which can be thought of as a subset of a 3 x 3 x 3 cubical grid, with certain choices of edges connecting them to each other. Each edge is replaced at the next step by a single edge, joining to the vertex in the centre of each 3 x 3 face. We begin the construction with the first step being the edges of a cube, and this is the result at the fourth step.
